In my search for a new switch for Antares I contacted HP based upon the contact information found on their site.
It turned out that the information I found was outdated. The funny remark the telephonist made (and I quote):
“Our Internet is outdated…”.
Never knew HP has their own Internet, or do they own the Internet ?
